Our group wanted to hype mom and pop restaurants that have survived ongoing gentrification and a recent pandemic. We feel it’s so important to preserve these long standing businesses to retain some of Seattle’s old character, one that is much more down to earth and even quirkier than the current culture.
I built my panels in Adobe Illustrator and my gif sun animation in PSD. I sourced my imagery from Yelp and Google reviews. The restaurant is so Mom and Pop that it doesn’t even have a website! So I had to scour the internet for information on the ownership and it’s history. I’m sure there is much more to it than I could find online. All the more reason to go eat there again soon and show the owner the panels :).
